Ahmadinejad Is Running Rings around the West
[Telegraph-UK] Con Coughlin - Rather than facing the wrath of a UN Security Council that claims it is determined to call a halt to Iran's illicit nuclear program, Ahmadinejad has bought Iran more time, without making any serious nuclear concessions. During the six years that Iran has been negotiating with the West over its nuclear program, it has taken the politics of procrastination to an entirely new level. Keep the talks going, and keep those centrifuges spinning. From the outset of the West's attempts to negotiate a nuclear deal with Iran, the Iranians have promised much and delivered little. They have repeatedly promised to freeze their enrichment activities at Natanz, only to resume enrichment once they realized there was nothing the West could do to stop them.
